Copper thieves stole wiring from six portables at Emerson Elementary in Riverside early Thursday, Feb. 6, knocking out power but not overly disrupting classes.

"Fortunately, today was a minimum day for students and classes were able to function in their classrooms," Kirk Lewis, assistant superintendent for operations for the Riverside Unified School District, wrote in an Thursday email about the school at 4660 Ottawa Ave.

Riverside police took a report and watched video from surveillance cameras.
